Ever since I hurt my back in 2001 I’ve had to live with aches and pains every day. Even after 2 surgeries, a discectomy and a spinal fusion, I live with the aches and pains. I refuse to have another surgery as I can deal with the pains I have and don’t want them to be worse. I also have shoulder pain that I have to deal with too. I can’t sit for more than an hour without having to get up and move around. I can’t stand for more than 10 or 15 minutes without my back starting to hurt.
At least I don’t have pain from Plantar Fasciitis. That’s about the only part of my body that doesn’t give me any pain except if I wear heels. So I spend my life in sneakers or my Bear Paw boots (I just love them.. they’re so comfortable!).
